Historic Westville

Share Georgia!

Historic Westville is a living history museum that depicts a 19th century West Georgia village. You may have seen pictures of little towns like Westville. They once dotted the countryside in the Southern United States. We have created Westville so that you can experience a community in the 21st century similar to the ones in which our ancestors lived in the middle of the 19th century.

Smoke it, pound it or dry it. The Muscogee Creek Indians will be here preparing for the winter, side by side with their rural Georgia neighbors. We will demonstrate how trading was done between the two cultures, along with Side by Side food preservation, harvesting, hunting techniques, and other cultural exchanges.

Celebrate the season with handmade candles, handmade wreaths, and see a tree lighting with real candles. Our historic homes will be decorated with greens, and you will be invited to help your children craft a small Christmas treasure for your tree.
